Palm reading and full-body massage

A Lao girl read my palm and said, “You have a long life and an easy time pursuing your career. You will have money, but not enough. You have two dominant male figures in your love life, you love only one of them but you will marry the one you don’t love.”

I also got a full-body massage at the parlor on the second floor of a sketchy building. We went in a group of five, otherwise the place really would make me fear for my life. I don’t think I enjoyed the massage that much. The masseuse was a tiny woman, but very powerful hands. It was painful at times but mostly ticklish. I was concentrating very hard to not burst out laughing.
